Jon Stewart highlights media hypocrisy toward teachers (orig. 3/4/2011)

Maybe you've noticed that there seems to be a double standard in the media when it comes to the pay and benefits of teachers vs Wall Street bankers. Jon Stewart, of Comedy Central's "Daily Show" has certainly noticed, and last night he hit the ball out of the park in the first segment of his show!

Stewart's mother is a teacher, and he makes no attempt to hide his displeasure with the way teachers have been portrayed by TV pundits.

Last night's show was a "twofer," because the final segment is an interview with educational historian and researcher Diane Ravitch, whose book, "The Life and Death of the Great American School System" is a great read.
